Best Answer

If you are speaking of disc brake rotors, the thickness of the rotor is measured with a micrometer to determine if there is enough material left to reuse or machine the rotors for service. Each rotor has a specified minimum requirement. To reuse a rotor that doesn't meet the minimum requirements is illegal and unsafe.

Furthermore the support disc of at least one of the two screen end pieces can have outer peripheral serrations to serve as a ratio wheel and/or synchronous driving wheel of the cylindrical screen.
